Naruto: Reincarnation of a Hundred Lifetimes, the Uchiha's White Moonlight

"The peak produces false supporters, twilight witnesses the true believers."

As Orochimaru entered his Hokage-dedicated office, a casual voice slowly drifted out.

Even before he ascended to the position of Hokage and donned the divine robes, he already possessed exclusive rights to the Hokage's office, so it was only natural for Yun An to come and go as he pleased.

Hearing that familiar voice, Orochimaru felt a strange sense of relief.

After entering, Orochimaru sat down, but Yun An remained focused on playing with the crystal ball in front of him.

This was a special item that he strongly recommended keeping; with it, the entire Hidden Leaf Village would be under his control.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Yun An used ninjutsu, and a burst of white light emanated from the crystal ball in front of him. The scene inside was incredibly white and enormous, showing the Senju clan's stronghold.

"Since you enjoy watching Tsunade from the Senju clan so much, I'll suggest at a meeting later that you become a Hokage advisor. That way, you'll be a good match."

Orochimaru suddenly spoke up.

Yun An was startled and immediately shook her head vigorously, as if recalling some unpleasant memory...

So what if he's a Naruto advisor? Everyone has a responsibility to resist domestic violence.

"Never mind."

Yun An laughed awkwardly.

"When are you going to the research institute?"

Orochimaru shrugged.

He always listened to Yun An about personal matters, but now he asked about serious business.

Yun An nodded casually.

So, inside the large research institute, looking at the volunteers all around.

Some of the bodies were donated voluntarily.

Yun An and Orochimaru traveled together.

Orochimaru waved his hand, and his assistants and researchers all withdrew.

Looking at the magnificent and futuristic scene before him, Yun An suddenly said, "Orochimaru, do you see that?"

"Once you become Hokage, you can concentrate all resources, and political compromises will make the vast majority of people agree with your decisions, not to mention some small lies."

"You see, even though projects like human research are openly conducted in the village, they still receive strong support from commoners, small ninja clans, and powerful families. The necessary rhetoric skills are essential for this."

Orochimaru's exploration of the essence of life and his research on the principles of immortality ninjutsu are unchangeable, so Yun'an can only push him along the "correct" path to make all the names seem more acceptable and reasonable.

This is the most advantageous approach.

Orochimaru didn't speak, but a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Orochimaru's dream has ended.

……

When he came to his senses, Orochimaru was still inside the Root organization.

The bubbles of memories in the dream gradually burst, and reason returned.

At this moment, he would occasionally glance in the direction of Danzo out of the corner of his eye.

At this moment, Danzo is removing the "Seal of Extinction of the Tongue" from the members of the Root.

This is a sealing seal used exclusively by the Hidden Leaf Village's Dark Guard and Root. It is usually imprinted on the tongue. If anyone tries to utter any confidential information, they will be paralyzed, unable to speak or move, thus preventing the secret from being leaked.

Danzo was only able to break the curse seal because he was once again completely persuaded by Orochimaru's powerful political rhetoric.

"The true path to becoming Hokage is always upright and honorable."

"Schemes and tricks won't amount to anything. Haven't you realized, Danzo? Ever since you became the leader of Root, you've become the most detestable person in Konoha besides the Uchiha."

"Do you think someone like you can gain the support of all levels of society within Konoha—from ordinary citizens and ninjas to small ninja clans and large powerful families—and become the Hokage you desire?"

Everyone in Konoha has extremely low political awareness, and the Uchiha clan is even lower, practically nonexistent.

In Orochimaru's eyes, it was nothing more than two weaklings fighting each other.

After being mentored by Orochimaru, Danzo's political acumen visibly improved significantly.

What secrets does the root hold?

The biggest things are nothing more than his research on the Sharingan, his human research with Orochimaru, and his knowledge of Wood Release.

This refers to the research on Hashirama's cells from the Senju clan.

Of these three biggest secrets, only a very small number of people know the first one; Orochimaru has already temporarily terminated the second secret and even proposed a better alternative; and the third secret, like the first one, is something that people from all clans within Konoha have more or less guessed.

the most important is--

Danzo's old partner, Hiruzen Sarutobi, had actually been tacitly acquiescing to all of this, and even his other two old friends, Homura Mitokado and Koharu Utatane, were not entirely unaware of it.

Therefore, in Danzo's view now, this "Seal of Eradicating the Root of Tongue Disaster" is indeed somewhat superfluous.

Politics should never be about Danzo bearing all the sins alone; everyone should be wallowing in the mire of sin so that Danzo won't seem so out of place.

Although it might cause some damage to Konoha, Danzo's obsession with becoming Hokage was simply too strong, absolutely comparable to the Uchiha clan's obsession.

He silently comforted himself: a temporary sacrifice is nothing. When Danzo takes over as Hokage, he will surely lead the entire village to become powerful.

And so I convinced myself.

"Danzo, the future Fifth Hokage? A white lie, the feeling of being deceived..."

Orochimaru smiled faintly as he looked at Danzo's tireless efforts, his eyes flickering slightly as if memories were resurfacing in his mind.

"Everyone had their own difficulties back then, Yun'an-jun, I forgive you. And... Yun'an-jun, the taste of death must have been particularly unpleasant?"

At this point, Orochimaru had already chosen the appropriate predicament for Yun'an.

"Yun Anjun, I'm waiting for your apology."

……

The daily lives of ordinary people in Yun'an continue as usual.

The steaming hot buns were eaten one bite at a time, and by the time we finished them, we had almost reached the archives room of the office building.

Yun An chose to ignore the surprised looks from her colleagues.

By this time, news had already spread that Uebayashi Kawa had been appointed as a special advisor to the Konoha Police Department.

Yun An poured himself a glass of hot water, calming his stomach as he listened to his colleagues' chatter: "Shang Linchuan really hit the jackpot this time."

From a lowly clerk to a special advisor to the security department, even though it's from the Uchiha faction, isn't that a huge promotion? It's probably more than three levels higher.

"hehe."

One of the employees sneered, whether sarcastically or deliberately, "For commoners like us, before we cultivate chakra, the highest we can do is be a team leader. To go higher, you need chakra, or even a ninja master."

"well……"

Some people couldn't stand it and were full of envy and jealousy. "His glory in Lin Chuanhe is only temporary. Don't you all know what the Uchiha's situation is like in the village?"

Everyone expressed their opinions, and the discussion was lively.
